Hey, whats the orientation coat about? Is it just a clear basecoat? When i think of orientation, i asume a drop coat over your final coat of base, to alow the metalic to look even.
I know with water you would use the term wetbed, so is this basically what your doing, except in solvent?
Thx

I'm sure you have covered this in another video, but why did you not blend into the door? It looked like you sprayed to the edge of the fender.

Dunno about the truck next week, but your production work doesn't need any polishing.
As usual.

I love trucks... but painting the roof and hood is a bitch.  Oh well.... I can't wait for the polishers to go on strike after this one :)  JK
